Two years later he marriedSarah M. Hall, daughter of famous Connecticut ship builder Henry T Hall. Shortly after, he and his brother-in-law Samuel A. Carter purchased the cotton factoring business, changing the name to Carterand Bradley.Immediately after buying the business, Bradley expanded by adding a wholesale grocery department and began to manufacture a high grade fertilizer for the farmers who grew cotton.In 一八88, Bradley and G. Gunby Jordan founded the Third National Bank and the Columbus SavingsBank. In 1930, these banks merged to form Columbus Bank & Trust Company. Today CB&T is the lead bank of CB&T Bancshares, Inc., a multi-bank holding company composed of more than fifteen banks in Georgia, Florida, and Alabama, a Bankcard and Bank Data Processing Company and severalBroker/Dealer Companies. CB&T Bancshares' Total Systems, founded in 1983, is the second largest credit card processing company in the nation today.In 一八95, Bradley bought his brother-in-law's share of the business, and changed the name of the Company to the W C. Bradley Co.Over the next five years Bradley bought Eagle and Phenix Mills and founded the Columbus Manufacturing Company, two of the largest textile mills in the South. He also built a mammoth cottonwarehouse, cited in the Columbus Daily Inquirer – Sunday, July 一三, 一八99, as the largest in theSouth. This warehouse, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, today houses the corporate and administrative offices of the W C. Bradley Co., the W C. Bradley Co. Museum, and the D. A. Turner Memorial Chapel. The chapel was a gift from the employees to the shareholders, given in grateful appreciation during the Company's centennial celebration in 1985.In the late 一八00's, Bradley also became the General Manager of the Merchant and Planters SteamboatLine. He shipped groceries and fertilizer down the Chattahoochee River to plantations, all the way to Florida, and returned to his warehouse and mills loaded with cotton, as well as providing traveling accommodations for passengers traveling to and from the plantations. W C. Bradley was the dominant figure the last twenty-five years of Chattahoochee River steamboat history. In 1923, Bradley donated the entire steamboat line as well as operating capital to the Columbus Chamber of Commerce.In 1917, Bradley purchased five plantations forty-five miles south of Columbus-along the Chattahoochee River. Today they form the base of the Company's Farm Division, one of the largest farm operations in the state of Georgia .... with 4,000 acres of row crops including peanuts, soybeans, corn, and wheat .... 30,000 acres of timber .... and a modern scientific swine handling facility producing over 10,000 hogs per year for market.Also in 1917, D. A. Turner married Bradley's only daughter, Elizabeth. D. A. Turner immediately beganlearning to manage the company's diverse operations.In 1919, Bradley and Earnest Woodruff organized an investment syndicate and purchased the Coca Cola Company for $25,000,000. Bradley became Chairman of the Board and remained active on the Board for 27 years, until 1946, just one year before his death. His son-in-law, D. A. Turner, joined the Board in 1923. D. A. Turner retired from the Coca Cola Board in 1980, and was replaced on the Board by his son, William B. TurnerAt the end of World War I, in the sugar crisis, Coca Cola almost went broke. The "syndicate" was unable to borrow the money to save it. Bradley went to New York and borrowed four million dollars in his own name to help save the company.During the early 20's, Bradley continued to diversify his holdings. in 1920, Bradley acquired the Hamburger Cotton Mills and renamed them Bradley Manufacturing Company.In 1925, the W C. Bradley Co. acquired control of the Columbus Iron Works. The Iron Works, dating back to 一八49, had manufactured cannons and cannon balls as well as gunboats during the War Between the States, and in 一八72 the world's first commercial ice machines. When Bradley took overownership they began manufacturing circulating heaters and stoves as well as horse drawn farm implements.The Textile Mills were sold during-the 40's. When W C. Bradley died on July 26, 1947, D. A Turner became Chairman of the Board. Four years before his death, Bradley and Turner formed the W C. and Sarah H. Bradley Foundation. Since that time the Foundation has contributed over $23 million dollars to charitable, educational, religious and cultural programs, and for community improvement. The W C. Bradley Co. has always made a strong commitment to its employees and to the community to provide a better quality of life.As the agricultural belt moved west, and electricity outdated the wood and coal burning stoves and heaters, the Iron Works manufactured its first cast iron Char-Broil Barbecue Grill in 1949. During the 60's they added gas grills. In 1973, the Manufacturing Division moved from the Columbus Iron Works to a new modern plant in Bradley Industrial Park, and became known as W C. Bradley Enterprises in 1977, now known as Char-Broil. Today the original Iron Works facility is the Columbus Iron Works Trade and Convention Center, one of the most beautiful and unique convention facilities in the country.D.A. Turner died on August 11, 1982. An excerpt from a resolution from Columbus Bank and Trust Company honoring his life stated, "Fundamental to all his admirable qualities, Mr Turner had a deep abiding love and appreciation for people. Because of his example and leadership, an atmosphere of patience, kindness and unselfishness developed that allowed others to grow.Mr. Turner exemplified integrity and stability. He never departed from a basic set of values and priorities that established him as a pillar of strength in a world of constant uncertainty and change. Though he received countless honors and enjoyed prosperity in every respect, he remained a simple man with humility who attributed his successes to his Maker and to those around him"D. A. Turner's son, William B. Turner. assumed the title of Chairman after his father's death, although he had been actively managing the Company since he became Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in 1973. D. A. Turner's son-in-law, Lovick P. Corn, assumed the duties of Vice-Chairman of the W.C. Bradley Co. after his father-in-law's death.On August 4, 1987, William B. Turner stepped down as Chairman and turned the management of the Company Char-Broiler to the fourth generation of the founder's family. Stephen Turner Butler was elected Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and William B. Turner, Jr. was elected President and Chief Operating officer of the W C. Bradley Co.Today the W C. Bradley Co. continues to be a financially sound and growing Company. The Company is comprised of three primary businesses: manufacturing, wholesaling and retailing.
